“If it doesn’t hurt, it’s nothing.”

How many times have you heard that?

But what if that little bump or dark spot you’ve been ignoring is actually your skin trying to tell you something?

Most people think that if a lump doesn’t hurt, it’s not serious. But the truth is, some silent signs are the most important to pay attention to. Especially when it comes to your skin.

Today we explain what those lumps or spots could really mean, when to worry, and how to take control of your skin’s health.

🔍 What Could It Be? Let’s Break It Down”

There are many types of skin lesions, but the most common ones that cause concern are:

📌 Common Types:

🔹 Warts:
Rough surface, usually flesh-colored or brown, may grow over time.

🔹 Moles:
Generally smooth and uniform in color. Can be flat or raised.

🔹 Lipomas:
Soft, fatty lumps under the skin. Moveable and generally painless.

🔹 Cysts:
Sacs filled with fluid or keratin. Can become inflamed or infected.

💡 Warning:
Even if they don’t hurt, you should watch for:

⚠️ Growth or sudden changes in size

⚠️ Color changes

⚠️ Irregular borders

⚠️ Bleeding or discharge

⚠️ Itchiness or new sensitivity

❗ Signs to Watch Out For

If you’re still not sure whether to worry, here are 5 common red flags:

1.🔴 It changed color recently

2.🔴 It’s growing quickly

3.🔴 It feels firm or fixed to the skin

4.🔴 It bleeds, oozes, or crusts

5.🔴 It’s itchy, even if it looks small

🤦️\200d♂️ Common Mistakes People Make:

📌 “It’s been there forever, so it’s probably nothing.”

📌 “If it doesn’t hurt, I’ll just leave it.”

📌 “It looks like a freckle, I don’t need to check it.”

📌 “I saw one like it on Google, so I know what it is.”

These assumptions can delay an early diagnosis. Don’t self-diagnose. Trust a specialist.
